Specifics due to the pandemic

Vaccination compulsory for the players

To participate in the Australian Open 2022, a player must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, tournament director Craig Tiley confirmed in November 2021. Despite being fully vaccinated, Russian player Natalya Vikhlyantseva is not allowed to participate in the tournament. She was vaccinated with the Russian vaccine Sputnik V , which is not approved in Australia.

Novak Đoković wanted to compete with a special permit, but was denied entry to Australia because of invalid documents. This decision was overturned by a court on January 10th on formal grounds and he was then allowed to move freely in Australia until his visa was revoked by the Australian Immigration Minister on January 14th.
